For one of our modules we have to, in a group, design and produce a toy for a child. In my group are me and my mate, and two french lads.

We were in the lab the other day, and another French lad, a little fella, wandered over and started speaking to his mates in French. So me, being Mr International Relations, said in my best French voice:

Je Voudrais Un Chien.

Which means, "I want a dog."

This didn't go down too badly.

The little fella then turned to me and asked why not many english people speak french. So I turn to him and say "Because it's crap."

Ooooops.

Maybe I should think about things in future, before I say them. Needless to say that all of my hard work with the dog earlier was wasted...

French is crap though, it's a well known fact. If the French don't realise this then they're stupider than I thought..

Tooooo many tenses in French, I'm doing it for GCSE at the moment.

"Mein name ist Anthony."


No wonder my teacher doesn't think I can do it at A-Level. :D
